Figure 5

Dose-response curves of the ci-ELISAs under the same molar concentration of epitope in an assay. Absorbance curve (a); inhibition curve (b). ● = the molar concentration of cysBPAv-AuNP-190 is 5.3 × 10−10 mol L−1 (the molar concentration of epitope in an assay: 1.0 × 10−7 mol L−1); □ = 2.6 × 10−10 mol cysBPAv-AuNP-396 L−1 (the molar concentration of epitope in an assay: 1.0 × 10−7 mol L−1); ▲ = 1.3 × 10−10 mol cysBPAv-AuNP-801 L−1 (the molar concentration of epitope in an assay: 1.0 × 10−7 mol L−1).
